    If god would make sure your kids would never be taken away, then you would say "Everything is perfect, why would we need a god anyways?". [Edit] (Of course I pray that your kids will be safe, I don't want to be misinterpreted here. I'm talking in general here)

    What many fail to understand is that life is a test for your soul. We are in school from the moment we are born until we die.
    Just as we tech our children in school, and give them tests once in a while (to see if they actually learned anything), god gives us lessons and tests us once in a while.

    If god would make a perfect life for all of us, then no one would be able to learn the lessons. One of the most important lesson for us is to make the difference between good and bad/evil, because if you don't know what is bad, then how can you be good ? How can you show mercy, and love, if you cannot see that the person in front of you is in pain ? If you don't know pain, you will not be able to see pain.

    Pain (bad things in general) has to happen to you, before you can see it in others.

    There are 2 ways to learn pain (bad/evil...). You can learn from the pain (bad things) you inflict in others, and you can learn from the pain(bad things) others have inflicted in you. Of course... from the first option is harder to learn, but you get there eventually.

    I think you can learn from good things that happen to you, but I think in general, it's from the bad things that you learn the most.

    The sad part of what I just said, is that only the people who actually learned some lessons understand what i just said, the others will say "bulls**t".

    [Edit] After I read my original message a few times, I realized that I could be misinterpreted in many ways, so I tried to correct myself with a few edits.
